Historians of our modern era remember this battle for its importance even though it took place 1300 years ago. According to military historian, Kennedy Hickman:
“Charles’ victory at the Battle of Tours saved Western Europe from the Muslim invasions and was a turning point in European history.”
Perhaps even more revealing is the rage expressed against the outcome of the Battle of Tours by Adolf Hitler, himself. In the same breath he praised Islam and attacked Christianity. Hitler said:
“Had Charles Martel not been victorious at Tours …Then we should in all probability have been converted to Mohammedanism. Then the Germanic races would have conquered the world. Christianity alone prevented them from doing so.”
The genocidal dictator of Nazi Germany grudgingly recognized the spread of Christianity for the victory. And from his ramblings that day in late August of 1942, there is little wonder why Hitler forged an alliance with Islam during World War II in order to destroy the Jews.
He looked out over the centuries and saw a kindred spirit. And when he approached the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem he counted on the fact that thirteen centuries of time had not changed their minds. In fact, he even said he preferred to be a Muslim by conquest.
Lucky for Western Civilization the Battle of Tours made Hitler unhappy. While Charles Martel and his army at Tours receive credit for stopping the advance of Islam and preserving Christian civilization in Europe, the impact of that remains with us through our present day.
Sadly, Americans are generally ignorant of this timeline in history. The truth is that Islam has been the aggressor for fourteen centuries forcing their political system and values upon other nations. The real danger is for America.
The Battle of Tours Made Hitler Unhappy
Hitler is the modern Democrats' true spiritual Father and inspiration.
